Serious Eats - seriouseats.com

this was a crazy bad event. (which i had been looking forward to since it was first blogged about on serious eats.) i have never had such an atrocious experience at any public venue previously -- and i mean never. we waited in line over an hour just to enter the festival. (and we had already purchased tickets! as had everyone else in line.) also, we couldn't even use our wrist bands for our 1 "free" meal or even use cash, since many of the vendors didn't have change. (this issue was eventually resolved.) after waiting in line approximately 40 minutes without moving for the katz deli sandwich, we finally decided to cut our losses and split and eat out. just terrible, terrible, terrible.
